Abstract
Clinical studies have reported that Type II diabetes patients (T2D) are more
likely to develop Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the mechanisms which
link these two diseases have remained elusive. In T2D, Amylin forms aggregates in the pancreas. However, it can also form neurotoxic oligomers in the brain.
